Quick Take
- WEMADE’s first global YMIR Cup runs Feb. 28-Mar. 1 at Razer’s Singapore HQ.
- Online leagues from Dec. 26 feed top servers into invite-only finals.
- $200K prize pool offers Diamonds, points, and exclusive gear to victors.
WEMADE just dropped news that feels like a saga from the game’s own lore: the YMIR Cup World Championship, Legend of YMIR’s debut global tournament, storms into Singapore next month. Top clans will clash offline at Razer’s Southeast Asia headquarters, capping weeks of online qualifiers that started right before the new year. It’s a clear pivot for the Web3 MMORPG. Less grind, more glory on a pro stage.
Launched late last year on the WEMIX blockchain, Legend of YMIR pulls players into a Norse mythology realm built on Unreal Engine 5. Berserkers, archers, and warlords roam detailed landscapes, chasing hidden quests and Black Valkyries. What sets it apart in the crypto games space? Partner’s Servers let communities own and run their worlds, hosting events and splitting revenues. Bi-weekly server battles keep PvP fierce, feeding straight into tournaments like this one.
The path to the crown starts now. Regional leagues kicked off December 26, running through January 23, followed by main league matches until February 6. Every Friday, servers duke it out in structured clan wars: occupy bases, topple the Tower of Victory, claim the crown. Division winners advance to the hybrid finals with live crowds in Singapore, streams worldwide on YouTube, Twitch, Facebook Gaming, and Bilibili. Pros gear up with Razer’s DeathAdder V4 Pro mice, Huntsman V3 Pro keyboards, and BlackShark V3 Pro headsets.
Prizes stack high for a Web3 title. The world championship dangles a $200,000 pool: 6.5 million YMIR Points for champs, plus Supernal summon chests and cups. Runners-up and top clans snag Diamonds, exclusive items with bonus stats, and server-wide glory. The ultimate flex? Winners earn the “Global Championship Server” title and a Legend Match showdown against Korea’s elite with clans like King the Land and Saekom from Beowulf server.
This isn’t just another tourney. WEMADE eyes the YMIR Cup as a league foundation, blending blockchain earnings with spectator esports. Amid Season 1’s server resets and raids, it counters some community gripes over reward tweaks by channeling hype into competition. For play-to-earn fans, it’s proof Web3 games can deliver real stakes without the hype overload.
As qualifiers heat up, clans worldwide sharpen blades. Singapore awaits the throne’s new holder.
